Smallpox is a disease caused by the variola virus, which is transmitted through respiratory droplets from infected individuals and enters the body through the mouth, nose or eyes. The virus then replicates in the body, causing a fever and characteristic skin rash or lesions filled with fluid. The immune system eventually fights off the virus and the infected individual develops immunity.
